General Chat / Re: Seat covers mk3 fitting in an mk2?
IIRC the late MK2 GTI seats are like the early MK3.
@t2000 I'm assuming you used tiewraps instead of replacing the metal hog rings? A good idea.
But MK2 seats are sooo much easier than MK7 Fiesta seats which have 10+ rings. You can imagine what F.U.N. that was transferring heating pads over and re-assembly of both sets!
I used small cable ties and cut off the excess, just straight through the hog ring holes direct to the metal bar underneath, although just thinking about it they were B3/4 Passat seats, only issue was the headrest area in the Passat where not the same so not a great fit.
They sat a bit higher than stock seat and the drivers one was firm as i used some of what was left of the MK2 base foam and added it to the MK3 stuff as i like a firm seat, came out ok in the end although there were holes on the lower sides where I took the plastic trays off, couldn't see them with the doors closed though.
They lasted 20 years so definitely doable.

Picked this up recently, (the merc) W202 C240 2.4 V6 slushy, drives absolutely spot on, surprising how cheap these are at the moment, doesn't seem to suffer from the tin worm.
Sport spec so leather, carbon, AMG type dials, sport kit and lowered suspension, completely stock, proper cruiser! Oh and 84k miles!

Mk2 Parts Wanted / Re: Wanted - Mk2 Golf GL wing moulding
Thanks for the reply, thats not the one unfortunately.
Heritage have that and its 55mm, mines about 38mm.
Cheers anyway.
I saw the one on Heritage and it looks flatter and it's part number is 191853517A, this is 191853517 so they are different.
